Ingredients

For the Brownies

  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder Adds rich chocolate flavor; use unsweetened for the best taste.
  • 1 cup Plain Greek Yogurt Provides moisture and protein, making brownies fudgy; swap for unsweetened dairy-free yogurt if needed.
  • 1/2 cup Almond Butter Acts as a binding agent with a pleasant nutty flavor; peanut butter can be used for a bolder taste.
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup or Honey Naturally sweetens the brownies; opt for a low-carb sweetener for a keto version.
  • 2 large Eggs Contributes to structure and moisture; make sure they are at room temperature for optimal mixing.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Enhances the overall flavor; pure extract works best.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda Provides leavening to help achieve the desired texture.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Balances the sweetness and enhances flavors.
  • 1/2 cup Dark Chocolate Chips Adds melty chocolate pockets; while optional, they greatly enhance texture.

Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Preheat oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  • Whisk together: In a large mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, almond butter, eggs, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  • Combine dry ingredients: Carefully stir in the unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until you achieve a thick, glossy batter—no dry spots should remain.
  • Add chocolate chips: If desired, fold in dark chocolate chips for those extra melty pockets of goodness. This step is optional but highly recommended for chocolate lovers!
  • Spread the batter: Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Ensure the top is smooth for a nice finish.
  • Bake to perfection: Place in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. The edges should be set, and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool down: Let the brownies cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes. Lift them out using the parchment paper and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Serve with a dollop of whipped cream for a delightful touch.
